Description:
The Koss KS3122 single-disc DVD player boasts an ultra-slim (under two-inch) chassis, wide format compatibility, and high-end progressive-scan video outputs for use with high-definition and HD-ready TVs. With a little help from a computer's CD recorder, you can even use the player to listen to CD-based MP3 files and watch slideshows of digital JPEG photos. The player is equipped to deliver the full image potential of DVDs when viewed on a high-definition or HD-ready TV. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, providing higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts. Top-of-the-line component-video outputs help minimize digital and line-scan artifacts on compatible advanced televisions, while composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. The player handles most standard disc formats, including CD-R, CD-RW, MP3 CD, WMA CD, DVD-R/-RW, and DVD+R/+RW--terrific for enjoying homemade DVDs from family and friends. Dolby Digital and DTS surround passthrough (from a choice of two digital-audio outputs, one optical and one coaxial) as well as Dolby Digital decoding--all of which put you in the jungle with the dinosaurs and in the concert hall with music videos, when hooked up with compatible receivers and multi-channel speaker systems. Dolby decoding lets you use the player with older audio/video receivers that offer 5.1-channel analog inputs but no onboard surround processing. Other features include five-disc resume play (which lets you restart discs from your previous stopping points), parental locking, a vacuum fluorescent display (VFDs are self-lighting, unlike LCDs, requiring no backlight), and a full-function remote control that lets you manage the proceedings from a favorite spot on the couch. What's in the Box DVD player, remote control, remote batteries, user's manual, stereo analog audio interconnect/composite-video cable.
